Literary Master 1978

Chapter 55: Even more addictive than Jane Eyre

When the Literary Society was reestablished, there was a big fuss. Not only did it cause waves on the YSU campus, but the news also appeared in top media such as Guangming Daily and China Youth Daily.

"Weiming Lake" is the magazine of the May Fourth Literary Society. The May Fourth Literary Society had been planning it since its re-establishment, and even asked Mr. Mao Dun to write the founding words for the publication. By the standards of a student publication, the deck is full.

But in the final analysis, it is just a student publication. Chen Jiangong and the others printed 2,000 16-page mimeographed copies at once. Since it is not a public publication, it can only be circulated on campus. Moreover, due to the scale effect, the printing cost of the publication is not low. The price of 20 cents is just to save money. Five copies of "Weiming Lake" cost one yuan. Chen Jiangong's favor with Lin Chaoyang must be more than one yuan.

It just so happens that I will trouble some colleagues in the library office to take it back and share a copy with each other to win over people's hearts.

If later generations say that someone did a favor to a colleague and the colleague replied to his student magazine, he would probably be offended to death. It would be better not to reply. It is different now.

The vast majority of citizens with a certain level of education are eager to read books and newspapers, and don't underestimate Weiming Lake. Although it is only a student publication, not ordinary people can publish their works in it.

Lin Chaoyang casually browsed through it on the way back and saw Liu Zhenyun's "A Night in the Melon Field", which was the novel he revised, as well as Shi Tiesheng's "The Corner Without the Sun", as well as Chen Jiangong, Huang Beijia and others who are now famous in literature. Works by well-known authors.

I heard that this was done by the students of the May 4th Literary Club. Several colleagues who received the magazine were very interested. After reading it carefully, they found that the quality of the works published in this student magazine is really not low.

"These students are really quite capable!" Hu Wenqiong sighed.

Du Rong said: "I heard from several teachers in the school that it is difficult to manage the students of the 1977 and 1978 batches. One very important reason is that many of them have been working for many years, and their accumulation of knowledge and skills in some aspects may be more difficult than that of others. Everyone who is a teacher is rich.”

Hu Wenqiong nodded, "I've heard about this. Wasn't Teacher Qiu from the Spanish Department not so angry that she cried because there were so few students coming to her class some time ago? I heard it was because she thought her lectures were not good enough."

"It doesn't mean you are not good enough. Teacher Qiu is just thirty. These students are just fed up with the classes taught by the professors in the school."

Lin Chaoyang deeply agreed with the conversation between Hu Wenqiong and Du Rong. In recent years, Yan University students have been extremely happy. Almost most of the lecturers are professors, including many top scholars in various domestic research fields, such as Zhu Guangqian, There are characters like Wu Zuxiang in almost every department.

Students in a few years will not have such good luck!

Today's class in the Chinese Department is only half a day, and the students in the department are talking about one thing after class. It is said that the school is preparing to arrange "accompanying" students for international students.

The so-called "living with", as the name suggests, naturally means living with international students. Of course, this refers to same-sex relationships.

On the one hand, it is to allow international students to better learn and practice their language skills, and on the other hand, it is also meant to supervise international students.

These days, apart from locals from Yanjing, few students speak standard Mandarin, so local students from Yanjing naturally become the best candidates to stay with them.

There are many native Yanjing students in the 77-level Chinese Department, including Zha Jianying, Wang Xiaoping, Gong Yu, Li Chun...

Everyone is not very positive about this matter. Contact with foreigners is a big deal these days. Although you can enjoy a double dormitory if you live with international students, no one wants to get into trouble. When talking about this matter, they mostly want to avoid getting themselves into trouble.

While chatting, the topic in the girls' dormitory came up with the strange faces that appeared in the classroom today.

"Hey, Xiaoping, who is the little classmate sitting next to Chen Jiangong today? Why haven't I seen him before?"

Gong Yu is the oldest among the girls majoring in literature in the Chinese Department of Class 77. She is a day student and rarely participates in the activities of the May Fourth Literary Club. She does not know Lin Chaoyang. She asked Wang Xiaoping with some curiosity.

Before Wang Xiaoping could answer, Zha Jianying asked, "Don't you know him?"

Gong Yu was confused when Zha Jianying asked, "Should I know him?"

"You haven't seen him before when you went to watch a movie in Xiaoxi Tian'er?"

"Which time? I didn't go there twice!"

"He, the author of "The Wrangler"."

"Wrangler?" Gong Yu didn't realize it at first, and asked after a few seconds, "You mean the novel "Wrangler"?"

"yes!"

Wang Xiaoping said to Zha Jianying at this time: "Jianying, doesn't Lin Chaoyang not allow everyone to spread the word?"

"What does it matter? His pen name has been published in "Weiming Lake". Didn't you see that Jian Gong is so generous?"

Gong Yu asked: "The fact that he is the author of "Wrangler" must be kept secret?"

"It's nothing, it all happened before." Zha Jianying replied.

"Ouch!" Gong Yu finally reacted, "You should have told me earlier that you would be in small groups all day long."

"What is a small group? Is it okay for you to be separated from the masses as a day student?" Zha Jianying shouted.

"Hey, let's not talk about this for now. Tell me about Xu Ling, no, it's Lin Chaoyang, tell me about him."

The famous poet Xi Chuan once said that on the Yanda campus in the 1980s, nine out of ten students were poets, and the remaining one was a novelist. Almost every student was a literary youth.

The Horse Herder has been published in Yenching Literature and Art for nearly four months. Riding on the popularity of "scar literature", it has caused a great response among readers. As a reader, who is not curious about the author "Xu Lingjun"?

Gong Yu never thought that the author of The Horse Herder was actually from Yenching University.

"You want to say that he is quite interesting, where should I start?" Cha Jianying's eyes were shining, and her gossip spirit was burning. "He is the son-in-law of Professor Tao of the History Department. Do you know?"

Gong Yu shook her head. He is actually the son-in-law of the professor's family?

"The professor's son-in-law is not new. The new thing is that he was originally from the countryside. Professor Tao's daughter went to the countryside to join the production team and met him. The two fell in love.

After the professor's daughter was admitted to university, the two not only did not break up, but got married, and Lin Chaoyang was brought into the city by his wife."

Cha Jianying's face flushed when she talked about Lin Chaoyang's experience, and she seemed very excited. If you didn't know, you would think she was the person involved.

Gong Yu's expression became more and more surprised as she listened, but she understood Cha Jianying in her heart.

No wonder she was so surprised. The love story between Lin Chaoyang and the professor's daughter had the flavor of a Chinese classical love novel from beginning to end, and it had a happy ending.

At the end, Cha Jianying's face flushed with excitement, "Sister Gong, can you understand? The Seventh Fairy married Dong Yong, but Dong Yong was not a cowherd, but a literary star who came down to earth! Ah?"

Cha Jianying was so excited that she held Gong Yu's hand, and she was quite crazy like a star-chasing girl in later generations who was obsessed with idol dramas.

Gong Yu nodded like crazy, how could she not understand?

She understood too much!

This is even more exciting than the plot of "Jane Eyre"!
